It was very dark that night and it wasnt easy to see where we were going. Suddenly, a big steamboat came at us very fast, and the next minute it was right over us. Jim and I jumped off the raft (木筏) into the water. The boat hit the raft and went on up the river.When I came up out of the water, I couldnt see Jim anywhere. I called out his name again and again, but there was no answer. “Hes dead!” I thought. Slowly, I swam to the side of the river and got out. I saw that I was near a big old wooden house. Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at me. They made a terrible noise and someone called from the house, “Whos there?”“George Jackson,” I answered quickly. “Ive fallen off a river boat.”Well, the people who lived in that house were very kind, and they took me in and gave me some new clothes and a good meal. I told them that my family were all dead, so they said I could stay with them as long as I wanted. It was a beautiful house and the food was good there, so I stayed.A few days later one of the slaves in the house came to me and said, “Come with me!” Together, we went down to some trees by the river. “In there!” he said and went away.On the ground, I found a man, asleep. It was Jim! I was really pleased to see him. When the steamboat hit the raft, Jim told me, the raft didnt break up. Jim swam after it and caught it. Then he began to look for me.We decided to leave at once.

The animals in Death Valley dont use technology to keep cool. They have special abilities that help them live there.The kangaroo rat is one animal that lives in Death Valley. During the day in Death Valley, it gets hotter than 100F. The kangaroo rat rests all day in a hole in the ground. It covers the hole with grass to keep out the heat. The kangaroo rat comes out at night when it is cooler. This little rat is also very good at conserving (节约) water. It gets all the water it needs from the food it eats. Some kangaroo rats never take a drink of water in their whole lives!The sun makes the desert sand very hot. Animals, like snakes, get too hot if they lie on the hot sand too long. One snake, called the sidewinder, can solve this problem. When it travels, the sidewinder bends (使弯曲) its body into a“W”shape. Then it uses the bottom (底部的) parts of the“W”like legs and walks sideways (向一侧). That way it touches only a little of the sand at a time, so the hot sand doesnt burn the snake. This strange way of moving is how the sidewinder got its name.A lot of water in the desert is too salty for most animals to drink. All water has some salt in it. As the desert heat dries up pools of water, the salt is left behind. The remaining water in these pools can be much saltier than the ocean. One kind of fish, the desert pupfish, can live in these salty pools because it can drink the salt water.（1） Why does the kangaroo rat cover its hole with grass? A . To make it safe to live in.B . To make it look beautiful.C . To keep it cool.（2） The kangaroo rat gets all the water it needs from _. A . rainB . riversC . its food（3） The sidewinder is named after _. A . a placeB . a personC . its way of moving（4） The desert pupfish can _. A . live in salt waterB . use water wiselyC . live without drinking water（5） What does the passage mainly tell us? A . How animals live in Death Valley.B . How Death Valley got its name.C . The weather in Death Valley.三、 选词填空 (共1题；共1分)6. （1分） I cant say _ he will come to help us or not.

Many of them find it helpful to have a smart phone and an American credit card(信用卡).These things make it easy to pay for many kinds of goods and services. But getting a credit card as an international student is not a simple process. Normal US lenders ask for a social security number(社会保障号码). In addition, they ask to see a persons credit history. This helps the lenders fully believe that someone is responsible and make timely payments. These are the things most international students do not have.But one company is trying to make the process easier and fairer for them.Jack Guo is from China. He now studies at a university in California. He says having an American credit card makes it easier for students to get around town. And, he says, credit cards are important for international students who hope to live in the country in the future.Kalpesh Kapadia came from India to study at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He faced the same difficulties that many international students face when trying to get an American credit card. He decided to open SelfScore(万事达信用卡).Without asking for credit history and a social security number, SelfScore looks at materials such as passports，visas, and acceptance letters to American schools. The company also considers a students ability to pay.About 10, 000 international students from more than 66 countries now have credit cards through SelfScore. Kalpesh says less than one percent of SelfScores credit card holders are late for their payments because of different kinds of reasons.（1） Is it easy for an international student to get a credit card in the USA? （2） What do the things in the second paragraph refer to? （3） What can Jack Guo do in America if he has a credit card? （4） How did Kalpesh get rid of his difficulties in getting an American credit card? （5） How many SelfScores credit card holders pay on time according to Kapadia? （6） SelfScore considers a students ability to pay when he/she wants to get a credit card. Do you think it is important? Why or why not? 七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)10. （5分） (2018七下下城期末) 假如你是Jackie Chan, 你的美国笔友Lidia将于暑期来杭州， 为了让她事先对杭州有所了解，请你根据下列表格所提供的信息，拟发一封电子邮件给Linda, 主要是告诉她这段时间的天气、食物及你安排的活动。 WeatherFoodActivitiesSunny; hotPian Erchua, Dongpo Pork(肉).注意：1）内容必须包括表格所给的信息， 并提出2项活动安排；2）字数：70字左右短文开头已给出，不计入总字数。Dear Lidia,Im glad that you are coming to visit Hangzhou.
